Caden Davis received the SEC Special Teams Player of the Week award for making five field goals, including two from over 40 yards. Jared Ivey and Princely Umanmielen shared the SEC Defensive Lineman of the Week accolade after combining for four sacks and two forced fumbles, crucial in limiting Georgia to just 10 points.
